Pizza Slice Price 2.0


Pizza Slice Price 2.0
for Android 1.6+, best experienced in Android 3.2+, free

I have been redesigning Pizza Slice Price to take advantage of the wonderful new user interface options in Honeycomb and Ice Cream Sandwich and to incorporate some elegantly designed icons by Electra Hui. I was able to make some of these changes backwards compatible with previous versions of Android, although unfortunately not all of them. I'm excited to bring out my best-looking app yet, with these new features:
  • Added support for specifying a total order price.
  • Completely new, easier to use, dialog-driven interface for selecting pizza characteristics.
  • Honeycomb and ICS: One-touch no-typing dialog-driven interface for selecting pizza characteristics.
  • Honeycomb and ICS: Holo theme support.
  • Honeycomb 3.2+ and ICS: New tablet-specific layout.
  • Fixed a bug introduced in version 1.1 where size was miscalculated.
The new app is now available on the Google Play Store. Note that I have opted to release this version of Pizza Slice Price as a new app. Although the previous version of the app was downloaded nearly 2,000 times, it received very low ratings and had a retention rate below 10%. Because this app has more features and a different, improved layout, and the Google Play Store does not support ratings-by-version, I'm giving this app a fresh start. The old version of the app will continue to be available on the Google Play Store through the end of the month.
